Kobe Bryant’s daughters are growing so fast.
Vanessa Bryant shared a peek into her holiday with her and the late NBA star’s daughters Natalia Bryant, 21, Bianka Bryant, 8, and Capri Bryant, 5. In the Instagram post shared Dec. 31, the girls enjoy a wintery getaway as they roast marshmallows, go bowling and show off their impressive skills on the slopes.
Vanessa’s post also included a series of selfies with her and her daughters. And little Capri looks just like Kobe as she flashes a similar grin in each photo.
The kindergartener, whose full name is Capri Kobe Bryant, was born just seven months before Kobe and his 13-year-old daughter Gianna Bryant and seven others died in a January 2020 helicopter crash. Since her husband and daughter’s tragic passing, Vanessa has shared the ways her baby girl has emulated her father.
In honor of Capri’s first birthday, the 42-year-old penned a sweet tribute to little “Koko-Bean.”
"Happy 1st Birthday Capri! Mommy, Daddy, Nani, Gigi and BB love you SO much!!!" she wrote in June 2020. "God Bless you sweet princess. Capri Kobe Bryant a.k.a. 'Koko-Bean' named after her dearly missed daddy, Kobe Bean Bryant."
And Vanessa sees more than just Capri’s resemblance to her dad as she dubbed her baby girl “Daddy and Gigi’s twin,” as she posted a sweet picture Capri doing the “Kobe stare” while sitting on a pillow in April 2021.
Kobe’s legacy has been a major part of Vanessa and her daughter’s holiday celebrations. Last month, Vanessa marked Bianka’s 8th birthday, dubbing it her “Daddy Year,” as No. 8 was Kobe’s professional basketball number from 1996-2006. (He ultimately donned his high school number, 24, for the last decade of his career.)
"BB-8! BB is 8 today!" Vanessa wrote on Instagram Dec. 6, alongside a photo of the birthday girl. "Happy birthday to our Sunshine. We love you so much, Bianka! You bring so much love and laughter into our lives. You are so loved mama!"
“You say it’s your BB8 birthday,” she continued. “And I’ll keep reminding you it’s your daddy (#8) year."
